By default, the data log stores 400 events. You can change the number of data points the log stores. When you resize the data log, all existing log entries are deleted. To avoid losing log data, use FTP or SCP to retrieve the log before you enter a new value in the "Data Log Size" field.ReferenceRefer to the "How to Use FTP or SCP to Retrieve Log Files" section of this chapter.When the log is full, the older entries are deleted.How to Use FTP or SCP to Retrieve Log Files
An Administrator or Device User can use FTP or SCP to retrieve a tab-delineated event log file (event.csv) or data log file (data.csv) and import the file into a spreadsheet.
The file reports all events or data recorded since the log was last deleted or (for the data log) truncated because the log reached maximum size.
The file includes information that the event log or data log does not display. - The version of the file format (first field) - The date and time the file was retrieved - The "Name", "Contact", and "Location" values and IP address of the NMC - The unique "Event Code" for each recorded event (event.csv file only)Note: The NMC uses a four-digit year for log entries. You may need to select a four-digit date format in your spreadsheet application to display all four digits.If you are using the encryption-based security protocols for your system, use SCP to retrieve the log file.If you are using unencrypted
